Well, not entirely true. I agree it is totally inconvenient but there is a way of setting A5000 to BULB mode without Noise reduction.
1. Set the camera to M mode for manual exposure shooting.
2. Set the camera for continuous bracketing at "BRK C 0.3ev". It is a setting available in the bracketing menu.
3. Rotate the control wheel for setting exposure time to BULB.
4. Use wired remote for better stability. I purchased NEEWER and it has a mechanism holding the button until released.

Frankie, thanks for the Remote hint. I will definitely give it a try. Is RMTDSLR2 the code of this remote?
About "BRK C 0.3ev". I am a newbie with those things but my guess is that this is for Continues bracketing with 0.3 incrementing of the changed parameter. It takes effect mainly with short exposures when the camera takes three consecutive photos while you continuously hold the shutter button. Obviously it has no impact if you are in BULB mode when bracketing stops after the release of the button. It shoots a single frame without NR.
It also does a single photo with exposure settings between 1 sec and 30 sec as long as the button is released before the exposure time is over.
